24.12.2003 (18:38) Group Tatu to become presidents of Russian Federation. As a Duo.
The scandalous Russian duo has got their eyes on the post of the president of the Russian Federation.

"On 27th of December at 12.00 in the Palace of Moscow Youth people will be able to sign to support Tatu to become on of the candidates to the post of the president of Russian Federation ", - was said in the press-release centre of “Neformat”.

As to the reason why Tatu want to become the president of Russian Federation, there is no information.

"Group Tatu are aiming to become the president of Russian Federation full speed. And we can’t separate the girls", - said PR-manager of “Neformat”, Sasha Tityanko.

"First we have to get 500 signatures, is order to become a candidate, and then we’ll see", - said Ms. Tityanko.

Although, it is not yet clear how Tatu are going to over come the “age requirement”. According to the federation law since 10th of January 2003 N 19-F? "On electing president of Russian Federation", the age restriction to become a candidate is 35 years old. On the other hand, if you add the girls’ age together, you will get abou 35 years old.

Also, we don’t know how the girls will become the president as a duo. Duos are not foreseen as candidates.

So, the government will have to deny the girls’ new idea to become Russian president no matter how many signatures they will collect.

OMG the girls are crazy...as much as i love em i wouldn't choose em for president they still dont got enough experience under their belt for this kind of job and pluz i sure would love to enjoy my teens doing crazy stuff rather then be tied up to a political career and run a country who is currently trying to get its economy up and running and get the people at a well off state like other countries around the world.
Though i give em a thunbs up for wanting to run for president

Hmmm...not sure if they could run a country...I am going to question the validity of the source.

hahahhaahaha. That's really funny. 500 votes should be real easy to come across in such a big country like Russia. I wouldn't be surprised if Tatu pulled an Arnold and all this became a reality. I mean, who ever thought Arnold would be governor??? hehe.

Hehe yeah Alex, who knows? Anything is possible in the magical land of Russia lol. All I have to say is, if Tatu showed up at my door, I'd buy ANYTHING from them, even if it were encyclopedias! Well, as long as they were wearing Girl Scout Uniforms while they were pitching the sale ;)

HAHAHA I just love Shapovalov's ideas. He never stops suprising me! What's really cool is that most of Russian political websites and newspapers put the news on the front page and took the proposal seriously ;)

Furthermore, many people on those websites say that they would "love" to see the girls rule them

I sense another publicity stunt with trademark "Ivan Shapovalov" on it. Maybe the governor's elections in California, with a bunch of unlikely candidates, gave him an idea...

I was refering to the following websites, most of which represent newspapers:

27.12.2003 (15:54) Tatu were not allowed a chance to become presidents.

Today in the Moscow Palace of Youth was supposed to be a collection of signatures in support of the registration of group Tatu to become one of the candidates to the position of the president of the Russian Federation. But, as producer of the group Ivan Shapovalov told “Echo of Moscow”, the action was cancelled. The organizers did not get permission from Moscow government to carry out the action. Besides that, as reported by lawyers, according to the rules, the girls cannot be candidates for presidency, as they have not yet reached the legal age to become one.

^ I must say that I am somewhat relieved that this weird plan to become presidents of the Russian Federation is canceled in an early stage. Right now they should be busy with other things, IMO: do the reality show, record the second album, prepare for the continuation of the world tour.

Therefore I was pleased to understand from the article that is being referred to in this thread that the recording sessions in Podnebesnaya are about to begin...

"One obstacle in their way is a rule stating candidates must be aged at least 35; Yulia is aged 18 and Lena 19.
They are expected to use their combined age of 37 to overcome the rule."

That reminds me of a some kind of blonde joke... oh gahwd

I read about this thing yesterday in a Finnish newspaper too... I thought it was a joke... but it seems like they're taking this seriously...

Well, even if they'd get enough signatures... I doubt the people in Russia ever would vote for two such young girls ruling their country... since Russia isn't totally stable even now... what would it turn into having those two rulers?

Okay now I'm worried _________________F@*k authority I do what ever I want.

ok now, im kinda new to this whole russia thing, but i would think a barely legal lesbian singing group would be perfect to run that country. i mean comeon, they mess something up, they drink some vodka, everythings better. Ok so maybe my views are more distorted then anything, but maybe posting on these forums will help me a little bit with that.
